raspberries are by far my favorite fruit! Followed closely by strawberries of course. However, strawberries make my humble opinion, only moderately well in muffins and Co. So that's raspberries. Paired with a classic cupcake basic recipe. Yummie! Today, as I had a meeting with my colleagues, this was a welcome reason the oven to heat up again. Apart from that, these cupcakes also decorate the cake table at the wedding of a dear friend. It is therefore recommended the recipe to bake a few times before trial. So this is done today and I think I am just fine-tuning work still needs something. The frosting was not as strong as I would have liked. I used slightly less sugar than stated, because I do not want to have so sweet. However, I am afraid that this had implications for the consistency. Otherwise, I was quite pleased. Especially the cupcake batter was very loose and delicious! A run with more powdered sugar, it will still be determined again. Safety first!
